History
Southeastern Institute, formerly know as "The Southeastern School of Neuromuscular Massage" of Charlotte was founded in 1994. Upon approval by the North Carolina Board of Massage & Bodywork Therapy, the school was established to provide a clinically based curriculum in the Professional Massage Therapy training program. The School was founded by Kyle C. Wright, LMT, Paul. H. Thompson, and Dr. Richard L. Miller who had a vision to fulfill the need, in healthcare, for highly skilled, clinically trained Massage Therapists.
In February of 2007, the Southeastern School of Neuromuscular Massage was acquired by Dr. Arthur and Belinda Keiser, who have long-term involvement in developing and managing private colleges and schools.
In 2009, Southeastern School of Neuromuscular Massage changed its name to Southeastern Institute and expanded its program offerings beyond Massage Therapy.

- This is a terrible school! The teachers are great, but 1/3 of the way through the program, I was in a wreck that put me out of commission for about 8 months...I called the school weekly leaving messages for Dean Leech asking her to call me to possible defer classes or work out some other way to complete the program....she Never once returned my call and I could Never reach her. Now I am going to Edmund Morgan in Cornelius and it is a much better quality school and a much better program!
